Military

Wars

South Africa is not at war with any countries; however she has a history of conflict with her neighbours, Argentina, Brazil & Indonesia.

Brazil & South Africa has been working hard to build on their relationship and has seen a strong friendship form between these two Nations to such an extend that South Africa now sees Brazil as one of her most Trusted Allies and would protect her as if Brazil was it's own.

Natural Enemy

There is no natural enemy as of eRepublik Day 1,662.

Alliances and MPPs

South Africa is not a member of any alliance; however has in the past had favourable relations with both EDEN and Brolliance. Since the creation of PANAM and the alliance between the United States of America, a longtime ally of South Africa, and Brazil, an equally longtime enemy, this relationship soured somewhat and South Africa needed to find other, new allies, such as NWO members Poland and Spain. However, as South Africa and Brazil are currently at peace with the potential of a further improvement in our relations, we are currently reevaluating our allies.
